"Ugh... waste of time." Zhou Lei felt disappointed.

As Zhou Lei was about to close the interface, a prompt suddenly popped up, stopping him.

"Hmm? What's this?" Zhou Lei read the text.

"As this is your first time shopping in this category, you may get three free items." The prompt was plastered with these words.

"Free, you say?" Zhou Lei's attention was immediately grabbed. "Why didn't you say so, heh heh!"

The next instant, three items were availed. The Idea Gla.s.ses, the Author's Keyboard, and the Master Author Book were the three items.

"Heh heh, I'm going to make a killing off of this!" As he thought of future prospects, his eyes turned to dollar signs.

No matter what, his future was a.s.sured now.

Even if he couldn't sleep with his teacher, at least he could rest with ease this night!

"Alright, what should I use first... the book should be it!"

The "Master Author Book" materialized in front of Zhou Lei as he retrieved them from the System inventory.

The book landed on Zhou Lei's hands... or at least, it was supposed to...

Zhou Lei suddenly retracted one of his hands to scratch his head, but the book fell on the floor because of that.

"Aiya!" Zhou Lei exclaimed an expression of dismay. He did not expect the book to come so soon!

The book's front faced the floor, not allowing Zhou Lei to see the t.i.tle of the book. He picked it up, only to get confused.

"Master... Chef Book?"

Zhou Lei was puzzled. He had retrieved the Master Author Book from his inventory, but this had come out instead! What's more, this wasn't even in his inventory in the first place!

In any case, it wasn't harmful to him at all. In fact, with this book, once he levels up, he could upgrade his cooking skill once again! "A freebie!"

Suddenly, another book appeared out of thin air.

Zhou Lei was still crouching on the floor looking at the book when another one fell on the back of his head.

"Ouch! Hey, what's the big idea?"

He looked behind him quickly, only to see nothing. He looked down on the floor as well.

"What's this, another book?" Zhou Lei picked the other book up.

The book's cover read "Artist Virtuoso Book – Learn to Draw Anything in Just One Second! By: System".

"Ar- Artist Virtuoso Book? What?"

Zhou Lei was shocked. He never expected to get a book like this!

He was also overjoyed. This was obviously a bug, but it was one of the rare ones that benefited him more than it did him harm.

Of course, it still did him harm, mainly, on the back of his head.

However, as soon as he looked up, he saw another book falling towards his face.

"Ouch!"

Needless to say, rather than getting angry for being hit in the face, he was much more delighted at the sight of another book.

Reading the cover, Zhou Lei was ecstatic.

"How to Be Smart for Dummies. By: System", it says.

Obviously, this meant that the book would increase either his intelligence or wisdom or even both! And going by the Master Chef Book's effects the past day, it should increase those stats by a hundred!

"I... I hit the big jackpot! Woohoo! Aw, yeah!" Zhou Lei stood up and got ready to do his stupid victory dance.

However, he was hindered... by a myriad of books falling from nowhere!

"Ahhh!" Zhou Lei crouched on the floor and covered his head like there was an earthquake happening.

The books really made it feel like that was actually the case.

.....

Zhou Lei's parents, Zhou Jiahao and Zhou Xiang, came home with their daughter, looking depressed. Only Zhou Zhenya had a different expression, and it was a relieved one.

"Mother, I told you. Being an idol isn't based only on looks." Zhou Zhenya said in a somewhat condescending manner. "You need to have talent as well."

"Haah, if only you had a disease which increased that aspect as well..." Zhou Xiang talked with a contemplative voice.

"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Zhou Zhenya asked her mother curiously.

"Nothing, nothing..." Zhou Xiang responded in a polite manner, but inside, she was really cursing her. 'Acting oblivious, eh? I already know what you did with your brother, you can't deny that!'

'Soon, I'm going to be as beautiful as you too...'

Meanwhile, Zhou Jiahao was clueless about everything.

They opened the door to their home, and the first sound that their ears heard... was a moan of pleasure.

"Ahhh, yes!" The voice sounded familiar to the three. In fact, they were absolutely sure whose voice it was.
